the non-nativist theory and is associated with the interactionist view of language development, which recognizes

Jerome Burner

Jerome Burner created a collection of ways for a young child’s caregivers to promote language
learning through interaction, presenting objects and explaining playing games.

This also includes infant directed speech, which is when a caregiver simplifies her grammar and changes her syntax
and pitch while talking to a young child.

This collection is referred to as LASS(Language
Acquisition Support System).
